Colorectal Cancer

We help you navigate colorectal cancer with preventive care, early detection and personalized treatment options including chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery.

Why Choose Sutter?

Your comfort is our top priority, and we’re here for you every step of your cancer journey. Our gastroenterologists and cancer specialists use the latest and most reliable technology available to diagnose and treat colorectal cancer. 

Across Sutter, our hospitals have been named top performers by the Integrated Healthcare Association for high colon cancer screening rates that lead to early cancer detection and better patient outcomes. Our cancer centers have also earned accreditation from the American College of Surgeons for providing comprehensive cancer care.

In addition to diagnostic and treatment services, we offer support programs such as financial and nutritional counseling. We also provide educational cancer webinars and a colorectal cancer guide that answers common questions on treatments, coping strategies and more. This wraparound care is why Becker’s Hospital named Sutter among the nation’s top Cancer Programs of Excellence.
